quoteThat state of affairs shouldn't be seen as worrying though, according to our technical guru GARY ANDERSON:

"It's no surprise to see the teams not up and running because every time you open the garage and fire up the car you will find something else you need to attend to.

"These cars with all the complex systems, wiring and cooling requirements are a nightmare in the early stages.

"This is what today is going to be about - getting the car out when you can, troubleshooting problems and encountering these initial breakdowns with the new technologies.

"Everything is electronically controlled but before you can write defaults into software that will react to problems. This was inevitable, so I wouldn't get too concerned about teams having problems today.

"They will be overcome. F1 cars last year were very complicated, but these are probably 10 times more complicated so there is a huge amount to learn."
